PSYCHEDELIC HORSESHIT - Magic Flowers Droned

Considered by the Columbus cognoscenti as the little brother band" (Stooges-style) to Times New Viking (MC5-style), PSYCHEDELIC HORSESHIT first came about as three buds determined to crash a hippie fest and jam retardo. When asked for their name, singer/guitarist MATT WHITEHURST replied, "Just call us Psychedelic Horseshit." The band killed, the name stuck, and thus the die was ignominiously cast. Since then, they played with the Urinals, Country Teasers, Dan Melchior, Blues Control, toured with Pink Reason and Times New Viking, ruled a couple showcases at the 2007 SXSW, basically doing what they can to lay the foundation for the release of this debut LP (a previous 7-inch on the Columbus Discount label made many 2006 Best Of lists, too). Distempered, jaded, harmonious, and ramshackle, Psychedelic Horseshit keeps the glass half full; the question is, do you have the courage to drink their wry and wizened brew? Sure you do, its the tonic of champions! Shades of early Fall, Swell Maps, and Pavement." - Slitbreeze.
